Author Biography

Hi,

I'm Bryn, in my early fifties and from Canada. I've been a fantasy enthusiast since reading The Hobbit for the first time at 10 years old.

Of course, I played a lot of DnD as a kid and then rediscovered it again in my late forties. As a DM, I constantly create narratives, puzzles, challenges, and adventures for my players, many of which never get used at the game table. This seemed like a good way to bring that creativity into the daylight!

I hope you'll join the adventure as I delve into a new fantasy world, characters, magic and conflict. I'm sure we'll make some epic tales come to life!

I'm also happy to chat and would love any feedback to help my writing improve - so don't be shy!

The Glimmerstone Enigma

Last updated May 4, 2025
0 chapters

A classic epic fantasy with a Dungeons and Dragons flavor

Occasionally, the outcome of epic conflict hinges on the efforts of unexpected heroes whose details are lost to time. This is one of those tales.

The brutal slaughter of the Luminarium’s monks sparks the two survivors' quest for vengeance. Joining forces with poorly trained spies, treasure-hunting thieves, and an unconventional ranger, they quickly uncover hints of a larger, more ominous plot: a mysterious and powerful foe hunts an unidentified, valuable prize in the Glimmerstone Mountains, and unravelling the Enigma behind the attack on the abbey holds the key.

Who’s pulling the strings? What do they covet and why?

With stakes higher than any of them realize, the answers may be critical to the future of freedom and civilization.

Isolated and ill-equipped, can they solve the puzzle in time? And what happens if they do?

What to Expect:

Multiple Main Characters : A group of imperfect non-human adventurers with various skills and backgrounds join forces for a common desirable outcome.

Collaborative Problem Solving : The struggle to become greater than the sum of their original parts and find a way to succeed as significant underdogs.

Exploration and Discovery : A world with history, magic, and cryptids waiting to be discovered understood, harnessed, and overcome.

Natural Progression (without the stats) : MCs develop personally and professionally within the story's context, honing themselves and their craft as they go.

Dungeons and Dragons flavor : A homebrew world that broadly follows the ideas and constructs of the game.
